I know the devs prefer sticking to 100% blizzlike, mostly because it's so hard to define the fine line between sticking to blizzlike and allowing conveinence-fixes. It's much easier to stick to 100% blizzlike because then there can be no discussion about what should and what should not be allowed.
I don't want to defend this fubar mechanic, because it is completely stupid and should be removed, but I can see where the devs are coming from if they refuse it. It's hard to say what can be passed as being 'fubar broken' and what cannot. If they remove DHKs the community will next demand something similar to be 'fixed', which will steadily deviate the server from blizzlike more and more.
That being said, this idea gets a +1 from me, please remove this utterly retarded mechanic. It serves no sane purpose, and no one should truly miss it if a patch 'accidently' breaks it.
